The status is NOT quo.

Yes, P-C, it happens all the time. It’s actually better than it used to be with the regulations that went through last year.

We deposited it on Tuesday. They will release the first chunk today but won’t release the rest until next Tuesday. If we didn’t have rent checks for the house and office and two weeks of payroll to worry about, this might not be a problem. As it is, it’s a problem.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yeah, they do it all the time. We were in the same sitch recently, Pix, and a donor ended up wiring the money in, because at least then it wouldn't sit. But we got hit with fees anyway.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Ugh, that's frustrating, Pix. I mean, I find it frustrating just in terms of bill paying, but for a small business that would be brutal. I hadn't thought it through before.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I have ginger ale and I have pistachio gelato. I wonder what kind of float that would make?

A full week is a lot, even by crappy bank standards. That really sucks, Pix.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Possibly a crazy awesome one?

Our wings are not tired.

I always wonder, in this electronic age, why no one ever has to take extra time to get money *out* of our accounts!!!??

A delicious one.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

In the non-electronic age, deposits were available the next day, so it sort of seems like bank BS.
